Since 2005 BoardFree has supported the Lowe Syndrome Trust through the medium of long distance skateboard journeys. Many skate journeys are currently underway in support of Lowe and other charities, but this is BoardFree's central sponsorship page where people can show an appreciation of what we do.

Lowe Syndrome (or Oculo-Cerebro-Renal syndrome) is caused by a DNA mutation that effects the eyes, brain and kidneys of predominantly young male sufferers. Babies are born with bi-lateral cataracts, hypotomia (muscle weakness), kidney problems (wasting of essential nutrients) impaired growth, intellectual impairment and later may suffer brittle bones, arthritis, rickets, epilepsy (seizures) and behavior problems (autistic spectrum disorder). Many also have cysts and dental problems. 

We will continue to do what we can to help the Lowe Syndrome Trust find a cure for the disease, please help where you can.
